We loved our stay at Niwot Inn and Spa. The service and hospitality were excellent. I gave 4 stars instead of 5 for “Rooms” because it feels optimistic to assume that two adults can sleep comfortably on a double bed. With two adults and a 7-year-old, the room felt quite cramped, and I can’t imagine accommodating four adults comfortably. I would also love to see more visible recycling and composting options, though I hope these practices are handled behind the scenes.
We stayed at Niwot Inn & Spa over Valentines Day weekend, and it was the best little get-away. The Inn itself was amazing, we loved our room, and all around really enjoyed our stay. I got a message with Fiona and was by far the best one I have ever received. I even went back last week just to get another. Highly recommend her and the Inn!
We love the Niwot Inn and stay here whenever we travel west to visit our son and his family in Niwot. The rooms are beautiful with Native American influences and perfectly located in this lovely town. Breakfast was delicious and the staff is very helpful. The new restaurant Fortezza is across the street and is amazing and there is a great coffee shop, Oak, in town. You get such a sense of calm in every space. We love it here!
Accommodations are a big deal for me when traveling and upon many recommendations from family, my teenage son and I stayed at Niwot Inn for three night during February. The room is delightful. Bath and shower were perfect after a day out on the mountain. B at the front desk was so sweet and accommodating, I feel like she’s part of the family! Breakfast and wine and cheese hour make it such a warm place to stay where you get to know other travelers! The perfect inn.
At the risk of attracting too many visitors I have to state that the Niwot Inn is one of the most welcoming destinations in the US. Everything about the inn is charmed and charming. So much care has been spent in proving a nurturing environment. The rooms are not just tastefully decorated, but the amount of care and attention to details is exceptional, especially the use of natural stone in the bathroom and around the fireplace. It is a place of relaxation and comfort. A separate paragraph for the owners and staff is also merited. They care about their guests, and not just in answering commonplace questions. They smile and engage in meaningful conversations, thus providing a context for the township that surrounds the inn. The guests we met there reflected the warmth and attention the owners and staff. A continental breakfast is available and provides all that is necessary to begin the day afresh and invigorated. We were unable to partake in the evening wine and cheese offering, but just knowing it was there added to our comfort. A rainy afternoon would have provided ample justification for returning in time to enjoy the treat. Finally I will add that the town of Niwot is also worthy of exploration. Near enough to Boulder for easy access, it is not large, and the residents obviously care about the town and its stores, which are eclectic and very atmospheric, especially the old smithy. Five stars across the board Well worth 5 stars across the board
Niwot Inn and Spa is absolutely fabulous. The rooms are so comfortable, with wonderful amenities. They offer a great complimentary and the whole inn is so comfy and cozy. The staff are lovely and genuinely want you to have a great stay. My massage with Ryan was first class. He provides a fantastic mix of relaxation and therapeutic work. I highly recommend booking a session with him- you will not be disappointed!
We always love staying here. Great rooms and very relaxing environment. Right downtown for easy access to restaurants etc. Very accommodating staff.
The Niwot Inn and Spa is one of my favorite get away locations. The inn is beautiful and each room is unique and wonderful. The staff is so friendly and helpful and they create a welcoming environment. This visit I booked a spa treatment and I’m so glad I did. The massage from Grace was phenomenal…. Truly. I would book her again and again. This was one of the best massages I have ever received. It made my visit even more memorable.
Fronted by cotton trees, this polished hotel with Native American and western features is in Downtown, and 10 miles from Boulder's Pearl Street Mall.
